Good Guys
BulmaIn Dragon Ball, Bulma was a mixed up
teenager with blue hair and a personality
quirk that wouldn't allow her to shut up for
a second. Now, she's blossomed into a
mixed up woman with that same
personality quirk. But, Bulma is very
important to the team. She is a
mechanical genius who can operate and
fix anything. She is the one that discovers
the capabilities of the Saiyan Scouter and
enhances it for their own use. She also
takes the lead in finding a spaceship
capable of flying to Namek. Bulma
designed the Dragon Radar, which tracks
the locations of the Dragon Balls. Bulma
is also fashion conscious and changes
clothing and hairstyles during the series.
She often wears clothing with either her
name or "Capsule Corporation" on the
item. Bulma has known Goku since he
was a young boy. In the original Dragon
Ball, Bulma had a crush on Yamcha.
Although their romance blossoms, it was
not permanent. In Dragon Ball Z she
outgrows these impulses and settles her affections on Vegeta . They have a son,
appropriately named Trunks. The original
name for Bulma stands for bloomers (or
girl's underwear). Her father is Dr. Brief, of
the famous Capsule Corporation.ChiaotzuA master of telepathy, Chiaotzu has the
power to stop people in their tracks and to
communicate telepathically. This
white-skinned, red-checked little being is
the devoted companion of Tien. A strong
fighter in the early days, Chiaotzu does
not hesitate to throw himself onto Nappa's
back and self-destruct in an attempt to
save his friends. However, his power level
does not increase as dramatically as the
other Z fighters. Thus, Chiaotzu is not a
major warrior in the later episodes of
Dragon Ball Z.DendeThe lone survivor from his village on the
Planet Namek, Dende was rescued by
Krillin and Gohan. Unlike Piccolo and
other Namekian warriors, Dende does not
possess strong fighting abilities. But he
does have another crucial capability: the
power to heal. Dende is thus important to
the good guys during the battle with
Frieza. Trustworthy and caring, Dende is
loyal to Guru and his fellow Namekians.
Later in Dragon Ball Z, Dende replaces
Kami as the guardian of the Earth.East KiaEast Kai is the only female among the
four ruling Kai’s. She controls the East
Quadrant of the universe, which is known
for its speedy fighters.Elder KiaHe was a ruling Kai, most likely the
Supreme Kai, fifteen generations before
the current Supreme Kai. After his death,
Elder Kai was trapped in the Legendary Z
Sword. When Gohan snaps the sword in
two while training, Elder Kai appears. He
agrees to use his powers to bring out
Gohan’s latent or hidden capabilities.GohanNamed after his adoptive grandfather,
Gohan is Goku and Chi-Chi's eldest son.
He is idealistic, good and pure like his
father. Gohan reveals his tremendous
fighting potential when the earth is
threatened. His heritage as part Saiyan
and part human, make him stronger than
if he were of one race alone. With Goku's
departure to the next dimension and the
eminent arrival of Saiyans stronger than
Raditz, Gohan is key to the survival of
Earth. Thus Piccolo, a former enemy of
his father, joins forces with the good guys
and trains Gohan for the upcoming battle.
Over time, Gohan becomes friends with
Piccolo, looks up to Piccolo and even
wears similar clothing. Although initially a
wimp, Gohan's training in the wilderness
and subsequent fighting make him both
brave and loyal. Following the fight on
Earth, Gohan is determined to go with
Bulma and Krillin to Namek to collect the
seven Namekian Dragon Balls and help
out his friends on Earth - especially since
he feels he let them down during the fight on Earth. Gohan is key to the good guys
success on Namek, risking his own life to
save Dende, collecting Dragon Balls,
traveling to see Guru who awakens a
power sleeping within him, battling the
Ginyu Force, etc. He will be the first to
reach Super Saiyan II stage.North KaiThe Earth is in the North Quandrant of the
universe, thus the being we know as King
Kai is also known as North Kai.PiccoloGoku's onetime archenemy, Piccolo is
the second strongest being on the Earth,
born as a concentration of Kami’s
negative spirits. He has powerful energy
blasts, can split into two or four separate
entities, and has the ability to regenerate
limbs. He is often seen in a white cape.
Originally from the far away planet Namek
(although Piccolo doesn't know this for a
long time), Piccolo starts off fighting Goku
to rule the world. When the Saiyans arrive
he joins forces with Goku. At first it is an
uneasy alliance, but as the story unfolds,
their bond becomes stronger. While
training Goku's son Gohan for the
upcoming battle against the Saiyans,
Piccolo develops a special bond with
Gohan. Through Gohan, the only person
who has ever been a friend to him, Piccolo
starts changing character for the better.
He ends up sacrificing his own life to save
Gohan. While battling with Frieza, Piccolo
merges with Nail, the last of the
Namekain warriors and former guardian of
Guru. From this merging, Piccolo gains
Nail’s ancient Namek fighting style,greatly enhancing Piccolo’s powers and
abilities.South KaiSouth Kai is the ruler over the South
Quadrant of the universe. His quadrant
has the reputation of being a peaceful
area of space because all the fighters
from this quadrant are comparatively
weak.Supreme KaiThe Supreme Kai is the highest ruler
remaining after Buu's elimination of the
other Kais years ago. He becomes the
Supreme Kai by default, ruling over Grand
Kai and thus all life in the universe. He
comes to Earth during the World Martial
Arts Tournament to warn Goku about
Babidi's plan to revive Buu and to prevent
it from happening.page 1/page 2/page 3
